Layla Ocean Rush

Ocean Rush, where have you been all my life?  It's gorgeous!  Ocean rush is a medium blue holo.  A lot of the blue holos are a pale blue and if I don't have them right next to a silver holo, I almost can't tell it's supposed to be the blue version (I'm looking at you Nfu Oh 65).

A word of advice, don't even try to put this on without a base coat like Aqua Base or it will be impossible to apply.  While you do need a base coat made for holos, top coat isn't necessary.  It dries nice and shiny, so there's no need to worry about destroying the holo with a top coat.

I love this polish so much, I think I need to invest in the rest of the collection.

This is 2 coats.

Layla Magneffect Black Metal

Magnetic nail polish has finally caught on.  The days of hoping for  Lancome Le Magnetique to find it's way to your doorstep, or stalking ebay to see if there could be any Loreal Magnetic polish for sale are over.  There are now several companies offering magnetic nail polish including China Glaze, Nails Inc, Icing, Layla, LCN, etc.

The Layla magnetic polish comes with a magnet that creates lines on the nail and is located on the top of the polish bottle.  It's pretty easy to use, but may have a slight learning curve for some.  The key is to make sure the nail polish and completely wet and to not hold the magnet too close to the nail or it will pull up droplets, and to not hold the magnet too far away and not get any design at all.

I applied on coat of the polish on all fingers and then went back and applied a second coat, used the magnet and went on to the next finger.  After I was done with all fingers, I then applied a top coat.

This is 2 coats of polish.
